Hey there @thetomester13, is this something I can try out? I understand the rudiments of building and installing custom apps, but not sure if I need to fork your repo, of just cloning it will work. I requested access on gitlab.

@girish @murgero I had a dream last night where I visited the Cloudron app store and found a new Gitpod App!

Dreams do come true, or nearly so, anway

btw, when using Gitpod, I think user id only matters for tracking code changes (which can be handled in a gitconfig file for each new workspace). I believe the Gitpod technology is mostly targeting teams who want to provide exactly the same compute environment to every user, maybe with differential code/data repo access permissions (scientific reproducibility starts with hardware specs and software versions, etc.).

I'm not sure if that helps, but thought I'd mention it ...

@girish ok, thanks for getting back.

The Gitpod project comes with Theia, and much more to ease the burden of collaboration on projects that are too small to justify dedicated backend support, but computationally intensive enough to need shared (or at least consistently reproducible) infrastructure. They offer free use (up to 5) for local hosting, and mostly turnkey tooling to deploy on GCP, but even if I were willing to swallow my pride and use Google services again, I would feel very uneasy relying on nothing breaking in all the Kubernetes stuff that goes on under the hood with their architecture. I’d like my Cloudron support, and likewise feel much better about where I’m spending my dime :).

@timbo @girish were you able to get Sleeky installed? I'm finding that the filesystem (at root, /app/code) is unwritable in the location where the frontend code needs to go.
